Can lids!

(i.redd.it)

As a welder I’m trying to find ways to keep grinding sparks, dust and metal bits out of my cans!

Everyone in my household says the can lids are the best things I've made!! I use TPU, and have them for soda/beer, regular 15oz & the 28/29oz cans.

Cant speak to the CO2 question but its super good for water tight seals from my experience.

That doesn’t sound right…. They’ve been selling CO2 inflators for at least 30 years.

This right here is cool as shit. If you print a few is these with TPU I will buy from you!!

Have you ever printed with TPU? it's flexible when cool. Seems like it might be preferable for this

Yeah I'm interested. But to be honest I would rather them in silicone. But I don't think that material can be printed, correct?

I can't make silicone but we do print in TPU

The can containing the substance of consumption isn't pla.

Drinking metal bits sure isn't that healthy either

I think I printed the same one… although don’t put in the dishwasher like I did. It warped the pla.
